guys, are you getting new clothes for eid?

Especially you guys living in non Muslim countries where desi clothes are not easily available.

I have so many kurta shalwars sitting in my closet that I don’t know of I ever have to buy new ones again. These are the ones I was given over the year by my family or bought for me by my wife. They are not new, but most of them were used only once maybe.

Do you guys buy new clothes every eid?

Re: guys, are you getting new clothes for eid?

I don't buy every year. Wear one of those that i have.

Nope, my husband doesn’t…he just wears whatever he already has. My sister usually brings him something on her yearly visits, but this time she didn’t so he’ll make do with whatever is there

It’s good to be a larki…new Eid clothes :phati:

I am glad that I don't have to wear kurta shalwar every day. I just can't handle that stuff for more than few hours

Re: guys, are you getting new clothes for eid?

^ hubby is the same way. He wears his shaadi stuff till this day. The men's desi clothes are so consistent in fashion too. no choti kameez lambi kameez debate. they are timeless.

Re: guys, are you getting new clothes for eid?

Re: guys, are you getting new clothes for eid?

Why not try something different this eid TLK? How about dabkay kay kaam wali chaddi designed by Ubuntu Kazmi.

I tried it last year. And then I stood in front of monk for eid prayers. Since then every chand raat, he gets nightmares about full moon

Re: guys, are you getting new clothes for eid?

I thought you were about to sell some :cb:

Re: guys, are you getting new clothes for eid?

Re: guys, are you getting new clothes for eid?

When Eid time comes , I wish I was a guy and didn't have to go through the hassle of dress , jewellery etc.
Plain thobe or Shalwar kameez would do.

Re: guys, are you getting new clothes for eid?

Can someone..send some sort of link..where i can get shalwar kameez from here..in Mississaua. I usually go that boutique by Dundas and Winston Churchill area..

I usually get something that I wanted. A sportcoat or a suit, or just new shoes. I don't do the kurta shalwar for eid thing. This year I will wear a fez with a suit on eid day. I don't even buy new jury as for weddings. I have a few nice ones and they are simple and classic, don't feel I really need it.

Re: guys, are you getting new clothes for eid?

Come to Toronto then. There are plenty of desi clothes retailers here. Yes, I'm getting new clothes. Problem is desi ppl have issues when it comes to sizes. They always carry M, L or XL in everything. Are there no small desi folks? I'm going to have to start getting my clothes custom made. X-tron.....try "Trendy Kapray" - she is in Mississauga. Her stuff is good. Look her up on fb.

Re: guys, are you getting new clothes for eid?

^ I come across the opposite problem, everything is XS, S, M....very little in L. :-(
